Petavius Crater (Video)

3 clips of Petavius crater ​​(177 km), filmed through the 8" telescope with the camcorder. In some images vignette on the edge  is present, but the area of interest for us is the large crater, impossible to overlook.
This crater is unique in its appearance on the surface of the Moon visible from earth, as it has the edge more special than other craters, a rim like a belt .
